Question

Worth 3 Points Marjoe had trained his dog that whenever it saw a photo of the cat next door, it would receive a treat. Through multiple pairings of the photo and the treat, the dog came to salivate when the photo alone was presented. Marjoe then extinguished the salivation behavior by presenting the photo but withholding the treat. He was surprised to find that, a week later, when he happened to hold up the photo of the cat, his dog started to salivate. What is going on here? spontaneous recoveny stimulus discrimination stimulus generalization regenerative responding 3 attempts remaining

Explanation / Answer

Spontaneous recovery is the re emergence of a previously extinguished conditional response without any further learning as happened here,the re emergence of salivating response when the dog saw the photo of a cat.
